First room

---

Entering this room can trigger the escalation.

Escalation message:
Your communication instruments finally come alive as the Serpentis contact who hired you starts talking on the private channel. Even though the area was empty, he commends you on a job well done and gives you directions to the next assassination target.

Second Location

There is only the warpin pocket with no acceleration gate. The Commander Battleship or possibly one of the Elite Cruisers can trigger the 3rd part of this escalation.

Escalation continue:
This time your employer is right on time with the coordinates to the last location. He sounds somewhat stressed, but before you can reply he is gone.

Third Location

This part consists of a warp-in pocket and an second pocket behind a acceleration gate. If the Shadow Serpentis NPC is in the first pocket, kill him for the next part, else take the gate.

Escalation continue:
After blowing up the third rival, you have probably come closer than you ever will to hearing how a debauched officer of the Serpentis sounds when he is ecstatically pleased. He gives you one last location and tells you to meet him there. It's payday.

Fourth and Last Location

This last location consists of 2 pockets, the warp-in pocket and a acceleration gate pocket. The last Shadow Serpentis NPC is in the second pocket.

You have always been a bit ambivalent to having a day job and the employers you knew have more often than been bastards. This one however was ok, if only you could have more like him.
